I made these at the weekend for what was possibly the last barbecue of the year. They were incredibly popular – so much so that I was hoping to save some for my fast day today but there were none left. So don’t make the same mistake as me, keep them all for yourself!

Serves 2 Prep time: 10 minutes, plus 4 hours marinating Cook time: 10 minutes

1 shallot, peeled and diced (5 cals)

1 garlic clove, peeled and crushed (3 cals)

2 tsp curry powder

1 level tbsp peanut butter (182 cals)

1 tsp runny honey (23 cals)

2 tbsp soy sauce (9 cals)

250g skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into cubes, about 1 inch square (265 cals)

• To make the marinade, mix the shallot, garlic, curry powder, peanut butter, honey and soy sauce together in a bowl. Add the chicken and toss until the chicken is coated all over in the marinade. Leave to marinate in the refrigerator for 3–4 hours.

• Preheat the grill to medium-high or light the barbecue. Thread the chicken cubes onto 2–4 skewers, leaving room between the chicken pieces to allow them to cook thoroughly. Grill for about 10 minutes, turning regularly, until cooked through. Serve immediately.
